Once again, I updated my writing style... although it isn't that noticeable as before, so don't worry too much about it: if I notice that it's not good enough, I'll revert it back to the previous one. Even then, I'm sure I have improved a lot ever since the first chapters...
Alright, send a review if you are liking the story so far!
Her glove-like hands were pressing on the window, as her smiling mouth opened wide and her eyes were sparkling: her irises were pointed on moving fields which either had plain grass, a sea of grain or vegetables.
On the distance, there were some small hills which on the sides, small forests were extending sideways for at least more than one hundred yards.
Moving his head over Fara's left side of her head, Hun's smile was rather large, as his irises were following the fields passing by: a group of seacows were bending down, as their teeth grasped the grass. Some were moving their mouths, with their cheeks puffed.
"Th' fields are the same as I remember…!" The little girl's head turns to her left, as her right hand was sliding down. "Do you remember them too, big bro?"
"Yes, Fara." His eyelids went all the way down. "To think I would get a chance to see the farms again…"
His back was twisting, his eyes focused on Mirii which was wearing a black coat: her right hand was holding her smartphone, her eyes were pointed on the screen, while she was sitting on a leather-covered seat.
"Mirii."
Her head was already looking at Hun, as her eyes were a little bigger.
"Yes?" Instantly, her mouth was in the shape of a small smile.
"I still didn't thanked you for letting me and Fara return home for at least one day." His cheeks were red, his head was a bit down, his irises still pointed over the girl's eyes. "I-I wish to repay you other than just telling thanks, though…"
Her whole face was red, her irises were smaller. Her head immediately was down, her eyes were looking at the smartphone, her mouth was flat and wide.
"Wh-what are you stating?!" Sweat drops were flying in the air, moving down. "I-I didn't do anything remarkable to receive such praises… in fact, I'm regretting my enormous passivity!"
"Pffff, really? Defending Hunry's genius is a sign of laziness?"
Mirii's head was now up in the middle, her eyes were looking the back of front-right seat's headrest. A left hand's palm was staring at the ceiling, coming from the left side of the seat.
"I guess that's what you get when you have a brother who studied law: your mind is right out of the box." Her left hand was tilting to the right, until the car dashboard was the only thing visible.
"Is that an insult, Grina?!" Her eyebrows were down, her teeth were gritted, her back was bended forward, her left hand's fingers were curled.
"Naaaah. Why you think everything is an insult over you? A true friend would never insult you just to get a laugh out of you." A sigh was coming from behind the seat.
Mirii's head was tilted up, her eyelids were on the middle, her left hand was a bit open.
"… my brother taught me his own tactics, when I was helping him in some of his many cases."
"You helped your brother? That's new." Grina's head was coming from the seat's left side, with her left iris resting on her left eye's left corner. "Were you looking for clues with him?"
"Somewhat." Mirii's head was down, her eyelids were all the way down, her eyebrows were in a middle position. "I was little, so I couldn't really participate in any of his conversations with witnesses or people generally involved in those cases."
"Girl, like why did you not become a lawyer too?" Bars' voice was coming from the left, as two hands were holding a steering wheel. "You would dominate on every case!"
"Hmpf, I wouldn't claim such statement with no evidence on your part." Her eyes were open, staring to the left. "Besides, my school career is moving towards the Agent side…"
"What about the project, girl? You are kinda cracking it a lot." His right forefinger was pointing the ceiling, with the hand a bit distant from the steering wheel.
"The merit can't be considered just mine: Hunley for example"
A music was coming from Mirii's right hand: the smartphone's screen was illuminated, as a number was standing at the top and two buttons, red and green, were on the bottom. Her right thumb touched the green button and her right hand was tilting clockwise, stopping on her right ear.
"Hello?"
Mirii, this is Tonna speaking: activate the Speakerphone mode, please!
Her right hand was now in front of her face: her right thumb went down on a circle, which was showing a speaker.
"Done."
Thank you! Now, can everyone bzzzz
Mirii's eyebrows were down. Hun and Fara's head were staring at each other.
"Tonna?"
Bzzz arn it! Bars, accost the car!
The steering wheel was rotating clockwise, as the hands were pushing in the same direction from their sides. The fields no longer were moving, as a large rock was standing in the front.
Did you stop?
"Did that, girl!" His head was turned over the smartphone, while tilting to the right, as his right thumb was pointing up.
Grrr… STOP CALLING ME THAT! I'M A WOMAN!
"Whoa!" Sweat drops were flying from his forehead, his arms were bended back, his hands were open. "Like, truly sorry for that… woman!"
Sigh… anyway! I want all of you return immediately to the Headquarters.
"WHAT?!" Hun was bending towards the smartphone, with his face pointed right on it.
"NO!" Fara's hands were on her mouth, as her irises were small.
Smoke was coming from Mirii's ears, as her eyelids were in the middle.
"And what kind of nonsensical, ridiculous reason do you have for this…?"
Because Agents are running a mission, exactly in the same point where you are going to.
Grina's head was coming from her seat's left side, with her left iris resting on her left eye's left corner: her mouth was a bit downturned.
"… a mission?" Hun's right forefinger scratched his forehead's right side. "What mission?"
It seems that Stingrays were spotted around the local farms: a team of Agents were sent on the spot with the order of inspecting the zone and capture any Stingray creature they could find.
His mouth opened wide: his eyebrows were down.
"… you said that we must come back?"
Exactly. If those Agents will
"I think not."
A loud gasp came from the smartphone.
HUN, DON'T YOU EVEN
"How could you say I should leave my parents behind?!" His teeth gritted, his fists were clenching a lot. "They are in danger!"
They are NOT! Those Agents aren't one just for show: they are true experts
"My parents always cared so much about me and my sister… and this is what I do to repay them?! Running away?!"
No, no, NO! You are not running away, Hun! In fact, your parents would probably say the same thing: returning to the Headquarters so
"They would never do that, Tonna. Those Stingray fiends already tried to threaten my sister's life… I'll not give them the chance to even think to threat my parents! I'm going to kick them out of the farms and protect my parents!" Hun's right forefinger was pointing on the road. "Let's go!"
HUN, STOP! DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND YOU AND ALL THE OTHERS' RANKS ARE AT STAKE?! THE AGENTS ARE GOING TO SOLVE THE SITUATION!
"No, I'll be the one who will kick the Stingrays out!" His right thumb was pointing at him. "I want to fight for my own family!"
"Me too!" Fara jumped, with her eyebrows down and her mouth downturned.
… siiiigh… … you know what? Yeah, go right ahead and be a hero: make sure the other Agents will see you, so you and all your friends will go around the streets asking for money! Don't go crying on me, afterwards: I warned you. Good luck, Hun.
The smartphone screen showed the phrase "End of the call". Hun's head was turned a bit to the left.
"Well? Move this thing on the road, Bars! My parents are in danger!"
"Alright, dude!" His hands were pushing the steering wheel counter-clockwise, as the road was slowly coming over the 5 Inklings. "Like, that bus stop shouldn't be that far from here…"
Hun's back was on his seat's backrest, as his head was turned to his left and his eyes were staring at Fara.
"Fara, once we reach home, you will stay close to our parents and make sure no Stingray is going to attack them."
"But I wan' to come with you, Hun…" Her eyebrows were up, her mouth a bit downturned.
"No! The Stingrays are dangerous!" His head shook left and right. "Mom and dad would never let you roam around the fields with me and you know that very well!"
A sigh came out of her mouth: her head made a quick nod. Hun turns to his right, with his eyes on Mirii's face.
"Mirii, if you can't fight the Stingrays with me, then"
"We three have our weapons, Hunley." Her head was up, her irises were pointed on his face. "You'll not be alone in this fight."
The boy's mouth was smiling.
"Good! Even though my memory isn't that good, I do remember very well the fields around my home: I would like to lead the Inkinators and check in certain places where the Stingrays might hide."
Mirii's cheeks were red, as her eyes were a bit wider.
"Heh, just look at Hunry: when he decides to speak a bit more than usual, he truly acts like a proper leader than Mirii!" A giggle came from the front-right seat.
"Oh, about you Grina…" His head was turned over the front-right seat, with his eyes tracking Grina's left tentacle and his back bending in the same direction.
"Hmm? Ah, drop out the fact I should be the leader: I'm too crazy to"
"You and Bars are so good when battling together: make sure to always stay near each other, ok?" He smiles.
Silence fell in: Bars and Grina's cheeks were both red, as their irises were shrunk. Hun's back was on his seat's backrest.
"… why Mirii has to be our leader?! Hunry is just amazing!" Her head was turned over him. "I seriously vote Hunry for president!"
"For president?! Wh-what does it mean?" His mouth opened, his eyebrows went up.
"It means you are truly a genius, Hunley."
His head turned to the right: Mirii's eyes were closed, her smiling mouth almost reached her cheeks.
"I always knew your intelligence was superb." Her eyes were open. "Please, Hunley… direct this team towards victory." Her head nodded once. "Don't be afraid to talk: that limit doesn't belong to a perfect leader like you…"
His cheeks got red: his mouth was smiling.
"Thank you for the compliment, Mirii."
